Abortion - 2,032 words
Abortion Abortion in today's society has become
very political. You are either pro-choice or
pro-life, and there doesn't seem to be a happy
medium. As we look at abortion and research its
history, should it remain legal in the United
States, or should it be outlawed to reduce the
ever growing rate of abortion. A choice should
continue to exist but the emphasis needs to be
placed on education of the parties involved. James
C. Mohr takes a good look at abortion in his book
Abortion in America. He takes us back in history
to the 1800s so we can understand how the practice
and legalization of abortion has changed over the
year. In the absence of any legislation whatsoever
on the subject of abort ...

Friedman, in fact, the featherlight material
couldn't be dented by a sledgehammer or burned by
a blowtorch. Yet getting the Air Force itself to
say anything about Roswell in particular or UFOs
in general can be an exercise in futility.
Officials are either bureaucratically vague or

Public Affairs, could only refer inquiries to the
Air Force Historical Research Center in
Montgomery, Alabama, where unit histories are kept
on microfilm for public review. But a spokesperson

An Unexamind Life Is Not Worth Living - 935 words
AN UNEXAMIND LIFE IS NOT WORTH LIVING The
unexamined life is not worth living. (Apology, p.
41) Socrates held him self up to this standard by
allowing the courts to take his life because they
would not allow him to continue his quest set
forth by the Oracle. An unexamined life would be
just coasting through and not making any decisions
or asking any questions. Socrates could not see a
point in living if you were unable to ask
questions and challenge your way of thinking. An
examined life would be trying to understand your
purpose and the current state of things. By
examining your life, therefore understanding
yourself, you will not be subject to actions
motivated by passion or instinct. Socr ...

Clinton Impeachment - 1,894 words
Clinton Impeachment Clinton has been impeached for
committing perjury and the obstruction of justice
in order to try to cover up the present evidence
associated with the Paula Jones civil rights case.
In 1868, the House of Representatives impeached
President Andrew Johnson because he unfairly fired
his War Secretary. He was not removed from office
because of a Senate vote of 35-19; he was one vote
short of being guilty. In 1974, the Democrats
marked President Nixon for factual reasons over
Watergate and drafted Articles of Impeachment for
thought by the full House. Before the vote his
main advisors claimed that they would be unable to
support him any further leading to his
resignation. This ...

the McLaury brothers lost no time expressing their
negative feelings for Doc and his gang. Doc had
become quite famous as a gunman by the time he had
reached Tombstone. Several men had died in
encounters with him. At any rate, Holliday was a
welcome addition to the Earp's fight with the
Cowboy faction. Doc and Kate's arguments were
frequent, but not really serious until Kate got
drunk and abusive. Doc, at this point, decided
that enough was enough and threw her out. Sheriff
Behan and Deputy Stilwell found Kate on one of her
drunken binges, still berating Doc for throwing
her out. They sympathized with her and fed her

stage called Clear, which is described as a state
of great freedom (Hubbard. What Is. 24). Once this
stage has been reached, the science fiction
content of Scientology is revealed to its members
(Devlin 2). It is at this level that the story of
Xenu is encountered (Mallia. Sacred. 2). It is
told that Xenu gathered up the overpopulation of a

taught by all these Christian women and their
covenanted men. A child, when hurt, may strike
back in anger. But only an adult could so coolly

about Abigail is whether you think she's evil or

Joseph K. is an employee in a bank, a man without
particular qualities or abilities. He could be
anyone, and in some ways he is everyone. His
inconsequence makes doubly strange his arrest by
the officer of the court in the large city where
K. lives. He tries in vain to discover how he has
aroused the suspicion of the court. His honesty is
conventional; his sins, with Elsa the waitress,
are conventional; and he has no striking or
